Is it possible to make the 5 tier shelving unit into a 4 tier shelving unit or are the poles single 6 feet long pieces?

Hey GSD,Each of the poles are 2 pieces that thread together. Once you have all 4 poles setup you can stagger the shelves however you like pretty much, as the poles have alignment grooves every 2 inches or so. The height of the shelving unit, however, isnt adjustable - I believe they do make a shorter 4 shelf design. Hope this helps. Cheers!

The poles are made of two pieces that bolt end to end. A shelf can be left out. Fulling constructed the unit is very strong but I don't know if omitting a shelf would weaken the structure. My best guess is that it would work but I suggest proceeding cautiously.

The ones I ordered were four shelf units that were 4 & 1/2 feet (54in) tall. The poles were in two sections of equal length (27in). I can't be sure how the five shelf units are divided but doubt that they would be in one piece. I did make a short, three shelf out of one of the two I ordered by just using the bottom half of the poles and this is very stable.

The support poles are 1" in diameter and are extremely heavy duty. Depending on what type of shelf you are wanting to add will need to be figured out once you have assembled the unit. The existing shelves measure 13-3/4" by 29-3/4" .

As you may already know they come in a package of 6. For what you describe above one kit should work. You would have 2 pcs at the bottom and then 2 pcs at the 6' high shelf and that would leave you 2 pcs for the top shelf. Hope this helps.

The smaller the kit that you choose, the smaller amount of option you have. Each kit comes with different amounts of shelves, hanging poles and the support rails. I went to Rubbermaid's website and looked at different configurations based on the different sized kits. Maybe that will help you. Let me know if I can help with anything else!

The shelving is adjustable. Goes roughly every inch you can notch the shelf on the poles.

The poles are designed to easily come apart, so I rarely put them all together then compact them. That said, it would be about two or three feet.

I am not sure, but there are separate pieces to it at different lengths. If you need it shorter you can just leave a section out, but you might not be able to use all of the shelves if you do.

Yes, the pieces are all interchangeable, so if you had 4 more legs and a shelf, you could have 6 tiers.

I am not sure? I have not had my fixture installed yet. We are building a house and will hang it about 1 month. I did take it out of the box and I would think you could. The poles are ajustable in length. I love the fixture. It is beautiful. I can't wait to use it.

The shelves are adjustable for height. You can set the brackets anywhere along the main poles. They are in about 1" increments.

Don't think you want to do that. The 4-pole unit would bow quite badly - don't know if would be any taller than 3 poles.

The poles slide off, but you would still have the attachment sticking up about 1 1/2". I don't see how you could separate the base into sections of just two poles, though. It's one long base for six.

I don't think so. The sides of the middle piece connect to the shelf units. So, it's basically all connected as one piece after assembly.

The shelf straight side is 6" and the way they & the pole are made the assembly does not tuck into the corner so the end of the shelf projects to 9" from the point of the wall corner

The shelves slip over the poles, so there is no "sticking out The Whitmore dimensions are correct. As the Whitmore rep said to you.

If I recall correctly, there are 8 short poles, but they screw together and the shelves are put on independently. However, leaving out the middle shelf might affect the overall stability. The middle shelf does not have to be dead center.

Yes you can separate the shelf into two. Because the top poles fit into the bottom poles, you have to get something so the second shelf sits level on the ground.
